| Blatter: more controversy (Picture: AsianFC) |
"There is no racism, there is maybe one of the players towards the other, he has a word or a gesture which is not the correct one, but also the one who is affected by that, he should say it's a game, we are in a game. At the end of the game, we shake hands, this can happen, because we have worked so hard against racism and discrimination." – Sepp Blatter on CNN.
“During a match you may make a movement to somebody, or may something to somebody… but at the end of the match it is forgotten… on the field of play I deny that there is racism.” – Sepp Blatter on Al Jazeera.

Blatter has been embroiled in a fair
amount of controversies in his time as FIFA president but none have caused
such widespread uproar – particularly from those actually in the game – as his
comments on racism have.
